BACKGROUND The present study demonstrates the decomposition of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by the Fenton reaction in the presence of Gallic acid (cas 149-91-7) (GA). Unlike other studies, catalytic Fe2+ concentrations were used with respect to PCP in an effort to evaluate an environmentally benign Fenton system, studying the effect of phenolic‐type compounds widely found in the environment. The effect of operating variables was evaluated.RESULTS At initial reaction times or at low H2O2 and Fe concentrations, GA enhanced PCP removal. At high H2O2 and Fe concentrations GA enhanced PCP removal only at initial reaction times. GA was the determinant factor controlling activity acting both as a chelating agent and reducer of Fe3+. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was applied to shed light on mechanistic aspects, verifying the interaction of GA with Fe ions. GA accelerated significantly the Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycling. This enhanced the formation of hydroxyl radicals (HO·) as confirmed by in situ EPR spin trap experiments. A reaction mechanism was proposed including the redox cycle of GA quinoide forms.CONCLUSION The operational variables of a GA modified Fenton system are provided and mechanistic steps are discussed including PCP degradation, GA/Fe interaction, Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycling and HO· formation. GA concentration controls the catalytic degradation of PCP. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry
